Are you
a victim of the
Astroworld Festival
Tragedy?

Over 50,000 people attended the sold-out festival on Friday 5 Nov. 2021 at the NRG stadium in Houston, TX. Little did any of these attendees know they could face possible injury or death while watching Travis Scott perform. Victims of this event may have received injuries that include physical trauma from being crushed, emotional trauma and signs of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), poisoning from an unknown substance, or death. It has been confirmed that 9 people have died and hundreds more injuries have been reported. If you attended the Astroworld Music Festival in Houston, Texas on 5 Nov. 2021, you may be entitled to significant compensation.

“This is a horrific tragedy and my thoughts and prayers go out to those who lost their lives and were injured. However, Mr. Scott has a history or inciting this type of behavior. The venue obviously didn’t provide the necessary protections for the patrons. In my opinion, this all could have been avoided. This case has similarities to the MGM case I recently resolved. Unfortunately, many kids were killed and injured at this event, which makes this situation more devastating in my mind..”
